I filed my I-140 and I485 concurrently about a year ago (July 14th receipt date) to the Nebraska Service centre and have been eagerly checking the processing dates

In Mid Jan they were processing July 13th and in late Feb they'd moved to July 19th (unusually slow for Nebraska), but now in mid March I've still not heard anything and my online status check just says "pending"

does anyone know how long it actually takes for them to actually reply Yay or Nay?

I-140 can take anywhere from 1 day to 1yr, but usually 4-6 months. If
it delays much longer you can always switch to premium processing (an
extra 1000$) , its well worth it, you get an answer within 15 days.

My yay took 7 months, that was Nebraska.

Thanks for that, I was getting worried about it being a month obviously I was wide of the mark

I can't see my company paying for premium processing as it suits them to keep me on annual H1B renewals
